As mentioned you need something with a really low forward speed. Most compacts and sub compacts have at least a high and low range , some even have a three range . Many of the hydrostatics have a high and low range. You also want a live pto of some sort although you could get by without it.As to make/models I would stick to whatever you have some dealer support nearby, and stick with the more established brands like JD, Kubota, NH/Ford etc. On tool talk I see you are tilling 25 by 100' that is fenced in. I would suggest if tilling that garden is the main job you may want to consider a troy-bilt or some other rear tine walk behind tiller. Another possibility would be a heavy duty garden tractor like a Case or Ingersoll hydrive, one of the bigger JD models like a 400 or 420 etc. For rototilling the lighter the better as to avoid excessive compaction. I also have a JD 5203, (along with a mfwd 5105) how do you like yours? Mine has been a very good tractor only problem I had was some three point hitch/hydraulic problems which involved cleaning the control valve (twice.) It happened right after warranty was off so I fixed it. I understand this was a common issue. FWIW I till my gardens with a 45 year old troy-bilt and at one time years back did a lot of garden tilling with a JD 950 with a 5' tiller .

Today's Featured Article - Earthmaster Project Progress Just a little update on my Earthmaster......it's back from the dead! I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
